Reverend Doctor @70
By Tafadzwa Grey
Seventy years of life is a journey so grand
Whoever guided your path is so saintly and grand
Not only St Douglas and St Cecilia, a special parental brand
But the whole of Rusere Village which nurtured this brand
You have served so many so far, with purpose and glow
So many missions and parishes, the works of your faith glow
Now you owe a debt of gratitude as you continue to grow
Your teachers, formmators and mentors who helped you grow
Rev Doc Nyatsanza is a name known so well
In pursuit of knowledge you stood out only so well
Philosophy and theology, a quest for truth and light
A Doctor of Theology, a beacon in the night
Pastoral work and leadership, a life of service and might
From Gweru to Masvingo, your heart is always in sight
Rector, Vicar General, Secretary General too
A life of dedication, with a true heart too
Round and round the world, many experiences on your way
Africa, America, the Middle East and Europe – home and away
Global perspectives shaped your life in every way
We wish you many more years of making headway
